O.P. [Release] Idle Security
I took the idea from the "Away Security" script (the one that blocks in 15 seconds after signin unless you click the panel).

This script will lock WLM after 2 minutes from entering the idle status, if activity occurs before the 2 minutes, nothing will happen, otherwise WLM will be locked.

It is useful for those who goes away suddenly without the time to lock WLM.

Hope you find it useful, and functional knowing that this is my first script.

I might add an interface to allow setting how much time before it locks messenger.

Change Log:
v0.1:
- Initial release

v1.0:
- Fixed toast on every status change
- Notify if Idle detection is disabled in WLM

The question is that how do I know that the user is idle without having someone telling me that (in my case I let WLM set idle status after that I lock).

If someone can tell me how to detect idle time I will be able to add it as idle detector.

I cant believe not many ppl using this.

I have a problem, it may not be originated from idle security script, but after the script lock the WLM and I unlock it, my WLM status still remains at Busy (Locked WLM status)

RE: [Release] Idle Security
I have two problems on twwo different computers:

1. On one computer WLM always comes back in the "away" state after I unlock the idle security script. I'd like it to come back saying I am online.

2. On the other computer idle security never works because WLM never detects inactivity - could there be something running on my computer that doesn't let it go idle?  Maybe something in the power settings?  How does WLM detect the idle state?
